Jesus & the Unabomber: The Haunting of the Heart Eric Anderson

January 2021 Edition:
When the Unabomber was caught his mother was asked what had happened to him. Her report: psyche slaughtered at nine months of age. And when Jesus too had been given the bum's rush, his mother was asked the same question. What was her report? She told the story of his circumcision (psyche slaughtered at eight days of age), and she reported the words of a blunt-talking witness named Simeon who had been present: "he will put a sword through thine own soul so that the thoughts of many (infant) hearts will be revealed" (Luke 2:35).
Both were hunting their killers. In both cases the mother was the reliable witness. Both are pure renderings of infant trauma. One hunter was an eight day old infant, the other Hunter was a nine month old infant. That is the respective age at which trauma sent them into their heads, from whence there was no escape.
